Camdiab (https://camdiab.com/faq https://camdiab.com/faq) is available in some places (UK) to provide automated blood sugar level management.
I have dived into this a bit, and the thing that I grokked is the challenge of proving that the algorithm/device loops really work and are really safe. There has been a lot of painstaking work to develop and certify a thing like Camdiab. Unfortunately it also means that it's important to buy the right smartphone to make sure that the right libraries are available and being used by the app... Has been a bit expensive.
They have also walked the road of testing and proving the devices/algorithm for use in small children and teenagers. Bear in mind that this is all very complicated and there are a lot of differences in the behaviour of different hormone systems in different cohorts.

Medtronic, Insulet's and a bunch of other systems are rapidly becoming a walled garden where the only way you can run the hardware and software you want is to run open source like AAPS or iAPS.
